Here's my sincere take on the whole money-back guarantee thing...

JOYS downloads, courses, and unwrapped hardgoods are a non-refundable investment in you -- just like a book you'd buy from a bookstore and read, time spent with a professional organizer, or music you would digitally download. Every effort has been made to clearly represent my products and their potential. Please remember that each individual’s success depends on his or her dedication, desire and motivation. As with pretty much everything, there is no certain guarantee on the outcome.

I know this is not standard in the ebook culture. But here's the thing, the very popular money back guarantee is a trigger to get you to buy without really thinking about your purchase. The impluse buy. That impulse is the reason behind so much of the clutter in our lives. I am asking you to be more conscious of your decision.

It's so easy to click and buy online. Tempted by all the bonuses, values and guarantees. You must know the benefits of what getting organized will be for you and the value that it will bring to your life. You must also know your responsibility in making it all happen. I want you to be confident in your decision and feel like JOYS is a sweet little investment in you. And really, it is a little investment in big picture of a calm and carefree everyday.

Then after you have made your sweet little cash investment...

Be committed to follow through. And there will be a lot to follow through with.Because you can’t just plop a bunch of folders in a box and think your clutter and chaos will magically disappear. Simple daily action, as well as basic long term maintenance are the only way this will ever work. I have given you my best in all the JOYS products and I work everyday to make the JOYS experience better.

Be creative and explore the flexibility of the system. JOYS is the most customizable system you can purchase, it might even be more flexible than a system you created on your own. In fact, I am pretty sure it is. So feel free to elaborate and explore all your options.

Be open-minded and at peace with your role in all of this. I can appreciate we are all wired differently, some more logical and analytical than others. And, this is a creative and philosophical approach to filing, with lots of logic sprinkled throughout. So, open your head to some new ideas and see where it will take you. I can only explain the benefits and features as I see them and how they have impacted my life. The testimonials reflect how others feel. You can choose to be motivated and inspired or not. Up to you. Love it or not so much, I really want to know how you feel and why. So send me your feedback and be open to a conversation.

Bottom line, if you really want to get your papers organized. You will. And your success will not be completely credited to a fabulous filing product like JOYS. It will be credited to your determination and will to just get it done.

And how awesome will that be?

Link advertisements are featured in standard placement typically below the main content. They will appear under the label Adverts and Other Awesome Resources. The link will marked with a *.
